Hi Dirk, I can think of two things (at this moment :) )
1. Windows Automatic Update I used to check the health state of Windows Automatic Update by checking 3 registry keys (with a PS1-script and an External Errorlevel Check): HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\Results\Detect HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\Results\Download HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\Results\Install But since Windows 2016 those registry keys do not exist anymore. :( It would be nice to have a way to check if the Automatic Update did his job. I don't mean if the host is up-to-date (it will almost never will), but just if there weren't errors in the Automatic Update process. 2. AD replication Microsoft has a very good tool for that, see https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30005 But it seems like they will stop the distribution of it. - the tool is limited in time. Every few months I have to do a new download - about a year ago it wasn't available on the MS download site, only after a lot of customer complains it came back - there is a popup saying that I should use MS Operations Manager Suite A lot of people are complaining, see https://windowsserver.uservoice.com/forums/304621-active-directory/suggestions/11701692-bring-back-the-on-prem-ad-replication-status-tool?tracking_code=76b764b65f1c69f691a1094a79f00768 Kind regards, Pieter From: Salive [mailto:salive-boun...@woodstone.nu] On Behalf Of Dirk Bulinckx Sent: maandag 24 juli 2017 17:26 To: salive@woodstone.nu Subject: [SA-List] What feature, checking type or alerting type is missing from Servers Alive?
